It needs a submersible feed pump (sold separately) to drive water through, and connects via 12 mm quick-connect fittings on 1\/2\" ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo independent chambers\u003c\/strong\u003e — run GFO and carbon at the same time, each in its own cartridge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEven, controlled flow\u003c\/strong\u003e — media sits in a fluidised bed rather than a static bag, so the full volume stays in contact with water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSwivelling 90° elbows\u003c\/strong\u003e on the inlet and outlet for tidy plumbing runs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefillable cartridges\u003c\/strong\u003e — reload with your own bulk media rather than buying proprietary pods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReef Pure RO\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual-chamber media reactor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 x 21 x 21 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.1 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMedia capacity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 300 g carbon or 290 g GFO per chamber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 mm quick-connect, 1\/2\" ports\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAA0566\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBarcode\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e740528975052\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it fit my setup?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll need a submersible pump to feed it — this reactor doesn't include one.
